Retiring the 4% Rule

Grand River Financial Partners...

Bump in the road, or tragedy?

Lillian Dickson said, "Life is like a coin. You can spend it any way you wish, but you only spend it once."

So we're breezing along through life, living everyday to its fullest when someone close to us loses their significant other, loses their job or their business, or severely injures themself doing something they enjoy and before they know it...their life is turned a bit upside down -- bump in the road or tragedy?

What if that someone had taken time earlier in life when they were saying things like "life is a breeze" to consider such curveballs being thrown at them? They have prepared themselves to deal with the financial aspects of such an event and while there is still pain, having financial confidence -- well "priceless."

At Grand River Financial Partners we want to help people (individuals, families, small business owners, retirees) find that financial confidence and keep life's curveballs to a "bump in the road" NOT tragedy!

At Grand River we specialize in listening to our clients, helping them sort through questions they may have, and educating them as needed. We have structured our organization to help clients work towards their financial goals through a wide range of financial services. We offer clients an independent approach to planning and investing. Our services include, but are not limited to the following:

College Savings Planning - save for higher education costs for your child or other loved ones or yourself.

Tax-Advantaged Investing - to help reduce your tax liability and let more of your money work for you. Investment Portfolio Analysis - to keep you informed of how your investments are performing, and to make adjustments as needed.

"Remember, what does 'retirement' mean? It doesn't mean that you're a couch potato. Leisure is not the same thing as rest.

If you're bicycling five miles a day, that's leisure, but it certainly takes a lot of effort."

New!

Invest for your future with our new online platform that combines the benefits of a personal financial advisor with sophisticated technology.

Guided Wealth Portfolios (GWP) is a centrally managed, algorithm-based, investment program sponsored by LPL Financial LLC (LPL). GWP uses proprietary, automated, computer algorithms of FutureAdvisor to generate investment recommendations based upon model portfolios constructed by LPL. FutureAdvisor and LPL are non-affiliated entities. If you are receiving advisory services in GWP from a separately registered investment advisor firm other than LPL or FutureAdvisor, LPL and FutureAdvisor are not affiliates of such advisor. Both LPL and FutureAdvisor are investment advisors registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and LPL is also a Member FINRA/SIPC.

All investing involves risk including loss of principal. No strategy assures success or protects against loss. There is no guarantee that a diversified portfolio will enhance overall returns or outperform a non-diversified portfolio. Diversification does not protect against market risk.

References to tax strategies that the GWP service investment management considers in managing accounts should not be confused with tax advice. LPL Financial does not provide tax advice. Clients should consult with their personal tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of investing.
